Robbie Williams and The Beatles are among the prime contenders to kick off festivities at London's Millennium Dome on New Year's Eve. Organisers of the party are looking for a classic rock anthem to be played at 23:45 GMT, just before the Queen officially opens the Dome.
The shortlist has been drawn from various polls conducted throughout the year. The organizers are to make the final decision, choosing from:
Johnny DYER (1938)
Tom WAITS (1949)
Tim BUTLER (1958)
Сергей МАЗАЕВ (1959)
Matthew SHIPP (1960)
